Nasty bug of last week, turned out to be pneumonia. I haven't been to work since last Tuesday, Feb. 14. Today is Wednesday, February 22nd. But, it has been really good to rest and get better. I have been able to nap during the day and really relax.
It was really stressful being that sick and worrying about the baby. I was coughing almost all the time and blowing my nose. All I needed was to sleep and get better, but I couldn't sleep because I was always coughing. And if I tried to lay down the snot would run down my throat causing me to cough more. And I am on antibiotics so I couldn't take anything else to help me sleep. I have been sleeping at night in the Love Sac so that I could be partially propped up. It hasn't been the most comfortable, but at least I have been able to sleep a little. Ryan has been sleeping on the couch so he could sleep near me. He is such a great husband.
Last night I slept in my bed for the first time in a week. I was propped up a little on pillows, so it wasn't the most comfortable. I'm hopeful tonight I will be able to sleep laying down. It's the little things that matter right now. The most important thing is that the baby is okay.
